On most afternoons, groups of teenagers sit together in cafés or parks, yet many of their conversations take place through screens. Smartphones, tablets, and laptops are now a common part of daily life. They shape how young people learn, relax, and stay in touch with others.

high screen use, many teenagers view their devices as practical tools that support both study and social connection. In school, electronic devices play a key role. A large of students use them to take notes, look for information, and complete tasks more easily.

Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions.

Vietnam has changed quickly over the past few decades. Today, daily life is very different from the past. For many young people, stories from their parents or grandparents may feel like scenes from another world. Yet these changes are not only about technology or money. They also show how values, habits, and expectations have changed over time.

In the past, most Vietnamese people lived in rural areas and worked as farmers. Some also worked as fishermen near rivers and coastal areas, while others were carpenters or craft workers in small villages. Life was slower and often followed the seasons. Families grew their own food, and meals were simple and fresh, based on local food. Because work and home were closely linked, family members spent more time together during the day. Neighbors also played an important role. They helped each other in work and daily life, which created a strong sense of community.

Transportation and communication were limited, so people felt distance more strongly. Bicycles were the main form of travel, and long trips took time and effort. Letters were often the only way to stay in touch with relatives far away. As a result, when people met, they valued those moments more deeply. Conversations were often longer and more meaningful.

Today, Vietnam is more urban and connected than ever before. Large cities continue to grow and offer more jobs and better education. However, this also creates a faster pace of life. Many young people have busy schedules, long working hours, and high expectations. Technology, especially smartphones, has made communication easier. But it has also changed how people interact. Online messages are quick and easy, yet they sometimes replace face-to-face contact.

People also see differences in what they eat. Traditional meals are still important at home and during special occasions. But modern life has increased the need for fast and convenient food. Eating out or having takeaways is now common, particularly for students and office workers.

Even with these changes, some core values remain strong. Family ties still shape decisions and cultural traditions are still respected. Festivals such as Tet are not only holidays but also important times for reflection and connection.

Vietnamese lifestyle has moved from simple and local to fast and global. For young people today, the challenge is to balance modern opportunities with traditional values. They try to create a way of life that respects the past while adapting to the future.
